If you are facing deportation from Canada and fear persecution, torture, or cruel and unusual treatment in your home country, you may be eligible to apply for a Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA). This legal process is often your last chance to stay in Canada.

At Cambria Law Firm, our experienced PRRA lawyers understand the urgency and complexity of this application. We’re here to guide you through the process and help you present the strongest possible case for protection.


What is a Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA)?

A PRRA is a legal process that allows individuals who are subject to a removal order to request protection from Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

To qualify, you must show that returning to your home country would expose you to:

  • Persecution due to race, religion, nationality, political views, or social group

  • Risk of torture

  • Cruel or unusual punishment or treatment


Who is Eligible to Apply for PRRA?

You may be eligible for a PRRA if:

  • You’ve been issued a removal order by IRCC

  • Your refugee claim was not denied in the past 12 months (unless you’re from an exempted country)

  • You have new evidence or a change in personal circumstances indicating increased risk

  • You are facing deportation from Canada
